MAC Lipsticks
My beauty routine has been super simple lately - moisturizer, concealer, mascara, maybe blush, and a lip product. Recently, I have been on a lipstick kick; I think my new, half-full 24-slot lipstick holder may have something to do with it...

Once upon a time, I was a MAC snob. (No pun intended.) I realized there are better products - both drugstore and high-end; I finally started trying other products and I sold or swapped the majority of my MAC products

However, recently, I remembered why I fell in love with MAC in the first place - their lipsticks. They're so smooth, smell awesome, and have pretty good staying power. Plus, who doesn't love the classic, grown-up packaging?

I'm happy MAC lipsticks are back in my life; they've definitely been a favorite this month.

coral makeup

This month, I've been loving all things CORAL.

My main two favorites are Clinique Cheek Pop in Peach Pop (also mentioned last month.) As well as Revlon Kissable Balm Stain in Rendezvous. You already know I'm a big fan of balm stains but I didn't have a coral one in my collection; I haven't quit wearing this awesome color since I purchased it.

beauty favorites: clinique cheek pops, brow wiz, coconut oil, The Wet Brush

Anastasia Of Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Caramel
I am growing tired of sharpening my Prestige Brow Perfection pencil so frequently; I wanted a mechanical pencil and something more precise. After reading all the raves about this, I decided to try it out. I have been enjoying using it this month, but I'm not sure it's really worth the value.

Clinique Cheek Pops in Peach & Berry
I haven't purchased any high-end blushes in the longest time. I did some research and checked these out in person... I knew I had to have them. The packaging is compact and adorable. They're powder blushes but go on like a cream and give an awesome sheen.

Coconut Oil
I've been reading about all the uses and benefits of coconut oil for the longest time; I can't believe it has taken me this long to purchase some! So far, I've only used it as makeup remover and lotion. (Using it as a sugar scrub and hair mask are on my to-do list!) Coconut oil has been the BEST eye makeup remover I have ever used; my mascara practically melts right off after applying this; I don't think I'll ever be purchasing makeup remover ever again.

The Wet Brush
I tried the Tangle Teezer a few years ago, this is similar but much better. After breaking another cheap hair brush, I knew it was time to try something new. I watched a few YouTube videos on The Wet Brush and I was sold. Tangled hair is much more manageable with this brush, and you can use it wet or dry!
